When the aging Meyer Lansky is investigated one last time by the Feds who suspect he has stashed away millions of dollars over half a century, the retired gangster spins a dizzying tale, revealing the untold truth about his life as the notorious boss of Murder Inc. and the National Crime Syndicate.
"This is the second feature film by Eytan Rockaway, starring none other than Harvey Keitel ("The Irishman") as the lead. The actor always manages to bring something unique to his characters, no matter how many similar roles he has played throughout his career. In this movie, he plays Meyer Lansky, a notorious mobster, telling his life story to a biographer (Sam Worthington). The narrative starts from a simple premise, based on a real story, and what surprises is precisely Lansky's life story and that of the biographer. As with any plot that tells someone's story, we have many flashback scenes of Lansky - which are so well constructed that they guarantee a convincing view of his gangster side, as well as the difficulties and disappointments of his private life."
